Large-scale BESS reduce need for expensive grid expansions. By combining high efficiency and fast reactivity, they balance short-term differences between supply and demand. They also enable renewables to be integrated into the electricity grids more reliably and widely. In future, we’ll see a diversified landscape of storage solutions used to enable the move to net zero. </p></div></li><li class="accordion-item" data-accordion-item><a href="#" class="accordion-title">Why is the flexibility of storage solutions so important? </a><div class="accordion-content" data-tab-content><p>The production of solar and wind energy varies depending on the weather. As renewables’ share of overall energy mix increases, grids must compensate, ensuring stable supply even at peak times. Storage solutions offer crucial flexibility: they store power in times of low demand, releasing it again when demand is high. </p></div></li><li class="accordion-item" data-accordion-item><a href="#" class="accordion-title">In which countries does BayWa r.e. implement large-scale storage facilities? </a><div class="accordion-content" data-tab-content><p>BayWa r.e. is active in more than 30 countries, and involved in energy storage projects all over the world. Project development and implementation are already well-established in Europe, Asia, and the USA. Since we work on specific projects at different stages of development, it’s important we understand each individual market. That lets us ensure the best possible returns for BESS projects. </p></div></li><li class="accordion-item" data-accordion-item><a href="#" class="accordion-title">Which technologies does BayWa r.e. use for large-scale battery storage? </a><div class="accordion-content" data-tab-content><p>As storage devices, lithium-ion (li-ion) batteries have a high energy density and lose little capacity with frequent charging. About 90% of stored energy is recovered and used again. Li-ion batteries are scalable; systems can be of any size, thanks to a modular design. They’re also more widely available, therefore more cost-efficient. </p><p>Our development teams are always exploring new technologies. We’re in close contact with manufacturers to diversify our technology portfolio. Sodium-ion batteries, for example, have potential to compete with li-ion.
